Where to go - Santorini Vs. Mykonos?

[d_kakavouli]

I am trying to plan a trip to Greece. I do have some time because it won't be happening this year. I realized that I won't really have time to visit both Santorini and Mykonos, but I am also having a very difficult time trying to figure out which to visit. A big pro of Mykonos is that I love nightclubs. I think it would be fun to experience the nightlife there. However, I am completely captivated by Santorini and how charming it looks, and I am not sure if I even need nightlife on this trip... I don't know, I just want to hear your thoughts. It might help me make a decision!

I wonder what the other places you want to visit are? Santorini and Mykonos pair well together because they are so close to each other by ferry. A logical trip would be to head to Athens and the see the sites for a few days, go to Mykonos, then go to Santorini. The ferry ride is just a few hours from one to the other, which isn't bad. Plus, ferry travel is relaxing - get something to eat or drink, enjoy the views, then it's over before you know it.

How many days are you travelling for?

Maybe around 10 or 14 days - I know, that isn't a lot of time for Greece!

Before I give my opinion what do you want to achieve in 10/14 days?.....Are you flying into Athens and from which country and month?....I used to live in Mykonos!
